Was soldering EC5 connector to the monster 8ga cables on my Turnigy battery and wasn't convinced all the solder flowed to make a good connection so I heated it up two more times until it was damn near bubbling over the connector. Will this not be as good a joint or in any way provide less power/create more resistance? Thanks, probably a dumb question but its bothering me.

Thanks gentlemen. The wires were still pre-tinned from the factory after I desoldered them from their 5mm bullet connectors. I did re-tin them a bit more tho with some radio shack 60/40 just to be safe. I think I was just looking for a reason to re-do the joints becasue on the positive lead there is about 1-2mm of wire showing beyond the EC5 connector-OCD. Don't know if the EC5 bullets can be pushed back out of the blue housing if needed tho...

If you can find some flux that works with the solder your using, it will help clean the oxidation on the joint and help the solder flow better. Then just clean the joint with alcohol. Or sometimes adding a tad more solder will help get the solder flowing also.

An easy solution to the wire showing is to get some liquid electrical tape which comes in red and black and use a toothpick to cover the exposed wire next to the connector. It works great in very small areas.
